Musk vows to liberate Britain from tyrannical rule, receiving approval on platform X.

American billionaire Elon Musk has suggested that the United States should "liberate the people of Britain from their tyrannical government." He conducted a poll on his platform X with this proposal, which has been condemned in Europe.

Indeed, Musk is expected to join Donald Trump's presidential administration, and like the elected president, he makes claims regarding other countries. On January 6, the billionaire posted a poll on his X page asking whether America should "liberate the people of Britain from their tyrannical government."

There are two response options - "yes" or "no." The overwhelming majority of votes in the poll were cast in favor of "liberation."

The Prime Minister of Norway, Jonas Gahr Støre, has already reacted to this. He described it as "alarming" that the owner of a social network is interfering in the politics of other countries.

"I find it alarming that a person with vast access to social media and significant financial resources is so directly involved in the internal affairs of other countries. This is not how it should be among democracies and allies," Støre told public broadcaster NRK.

Additionally, Elon Musk has continued his attacks on the current British Prime Minister Keir Starmer. On January 6, Musk retweeted a post from a right-wing blogger that accused Starmer of allegedly ignoring crimes committed by migrants while instead defending migrants from violence by the right.

"Starmer - to prison," Musk wrote, commenting on the retweeted post.

What’s Happening Between Musk and Starmer

Recall that Elon Musk has initiated a public campaign against the current British Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Musk, in particular, retweeted a post from a right-wing blogger with accusations that Starmer allegedly ignored crimes committed by migrants, including the sexual assault of children. According to Musk, he did this while serving as the head of the British prosecution from 2008 to 2013.

This concerns a scandal involving child exploitation by organized crime gangs in various cities across Britain that erupted in the 2010s. While serving as the Attorney General of Britain from 2008 to 2013, the current Prime Minister investigated the activities of these gangs and subsequently ordered a restructuring of the system for handling cases of child violence.

Musk's statements have prompted some British opposition politicians to join in the criticism and calls for a new national investigation. Starmer himself has defended his record as Attorney General of the UK. Responding to numerous media inquiries on this topic, Starmer stated that in some cases, the criticism "crosses the line."

"Those who spread lies and misinformation as widely as possible are not interested in the victims; they are interested in themselves. I enjoy political rivalry, the active debates we should be having, but they must be based on facts and truth, not lies," Starmer told reporters, without naming Musk.
